Chrome Fixed on SP3?

[ipaq_101]

Found this on a Google Chrome forum, I am at work and didn't bring my SP3 to try out, can someone try it out?

Please note that it is beta, but beta is more stable than canary though.

Could you explain me why I should be using Chrome? It's a known issue that Chrome is a buttery killer. Google admitted it. So, where do you see the advantage?

I assume you don't own a Chromecast streaming device. As far as I know, that's the only browser that will allow casting. I'm also able to drag and drop folders and files to Dropbox. I always get an error message when trying to drag and drop folders using Internet Explorer.

Again with the butter.

It's a personal choice, I am integrated into Google's eco-system and really like that I can sync chrome on my android phone to all of my computers as well. That is the advantage for me.

I am not saying you have to use it, it's for people who do like it and want to continue to use it.

I am not on my SP3 all day, so the battery life isn't a huge issue for me.

I have Chrome installed because of the hangouts but other than that I never use it.

I thought the hangout plugin could be installed on any browser, including IE.

I really don't know. I avoid Chrome at all cost. That why I'm asking here.

Just tested it on the SP3, it works great, no more blurry.
